This is indeed a cute request, Anon!!
Hope you like what I wrote. :)
I don’t know if you wanted this to be platonic or romantic so I tried to leave it open-ended.
✧ As he was passed around from foster home to foster home, Akechi commonly found himself alone. What was the point of making friends if he was only going to be tossed away by the institutions that were claiming to take care of him?
✧ Even at such a young age, he was intelligent enough to know not to get attached. No one cared after he moved. Then he met her.
✧ She was... Interesting. Despite his stormy disposition to most of the other kids, she would always meander over during lunch. Even if he refused to speak, she would either sit in silence next to him or talk about something that interested her.
✧ Then something strange happened. He began to talk back, slowly opening up. Although it would inevitably only be a few months until he was shipped away, Akechi opened up to someone. Conversation with her was difficult because he was slightly more mature than most his age but they eventually managed.
✧ Time passed & for a moment it almost seemed as if he was going to stay at this school longer then other places. Alas, it was soon announced that he was to move someone else. As soon as he told her, he thought that she would simply just leave, ending the friendship.
✧ Instead, she proclaimed that she was going to become an idol & make him smile again with her songs... He almost cried. Holding back tears, he took her hand & promised to hold her to it.
✧ Years later, Akechi remembered her name as though it were his own. Though he never found her on any magazines, so he began to lose hope that she had forgotten their promise together.
✧ Usually, he never paid attention to transfer students at Kosei High. The rumours were ridiculous enough as it was, some famous idol who had been gaining popularity lately. Perhaps it would take some of the attention off himself so he could focus on taking down the Phantom Thieves? At least he found it to be convenient timing until this mysterious figure introduced themselves to the class.
✧ Even though she had matured, there was no mistaking it. People were excitedly asking questions about wether she was actually the idol everyone had been seeing on TV & she merely smiled, telling them that yes, she was. Akechi almost fell out of his chair as she properly introduced herself. Still the same name he had kept close to his chest.
✧ After class, many were still interested. Mostly male fans who found her attractive but she was still kind & polite to all. When she peered over at him, he almost did a double-take. Eventually, satiated with their answers, the crowd dismissed into the congregation of the school corridors, leaving the room empty.
✧ Quickly, they became fast friends again. Rumours spread about the two dating but nothing ever came of it. It was simply the press going through the motions as an attempt to make themselves relevant. Such was the life of two celebrities.
✧ When she confides in him & talks about the manager who is a creep towards her, Akechi almost snaps there & then. He asks for their name, reassuring them that he will investigate as a detective. Although he focuses mainly on the Phantom Thieves, he would never turn away from her when she needed help the most.
✧ In actuality, he heads into the Metaverse to cause a mental shutdown. He spares no mercy & ensures that they suffer, eventually meeting a bitter end as he tears the Shadow apart using Loki.
✧ There are rumours that spread when it occurs, that she murdered him to get away or other wild theories but though it all he is there, telling them that it was what they deserved for even daring to be perverted towards them. Little does she know.
